This is a great website with some useful resources for those of us who drive on the left hand side of the road. It is aimed at newer or less experienced riders and its "know the dangers" series is a good highlighter of particular scenarios.

For Advanced Rider material, again for those of us who drive on the left, you would do well to check out John McDonalds series he has up on YouTube. He got bored during Covid lockdown and decided to make the videos. This is based on ROSPA training and the Roadcraft manual. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvOR0E7...NqhOnqjB3Q
I could only look at the Shiny Side Up one. It's great educational material, but I'll have to have a strong drink and go to bed to get over it.
Back in the day, when I was enjoying a Southeast Asian jaunt courtesy of Uncle Sam, I rode in Thailand often. I got a ticket from the MPs for speeding in the port. It's 'on the left, on the left' there. Riding a Honda 350, a big bike there, wasn't too hard, since your sitting on the vehicle, not inside it. The local transport, a baht-bus, is a Datsun pickup with benches and a tin roof over the bed, steering wheel on the right. Never drove anything there.
